No worries, Mary...we're just going with the "comment and you're in" approach to the giveaways. I have one more poll to put up this week...let's hope I have better luck with that one!

I just voted... and then I snooped around in different settings and found that we shouldn't even be able to create a poll in this forum, much less vote in one!

SO, I changed it and now everyone should be able to vote!

Sorry that took so long and I will check the other forums and fix all the broken ones!!

I voted Eucharistic Adoration, though I'm seldom able to make it these days. Yesterday I had to be content with singing prayers along with very antsy grandchildren in the adoration chapel parking lot!

I just ran across this awesome Worldwide Eucharistic Adoration Novena for October synod on the Family
First Thursdays until the Synod are being dedicated to prayer and adoration. (I'm sorry I didn't get the chance to post this sooner ~ I always tell myself since God is timeless, perhaps our prayers can be applied retroactively!)

I realized that though I voted, I didn't say for what in my post. I love a variety of forms of prayer, but my favorite is contemplative. I find that when I am faithful to that quiet time of reading and reflecting, I'm a better, nicer person!

I voted for contemplative prayer. I would like to put Eucharistic Adoration too. And some of the others!!! I find it hard to calm my mind and stop distractions, but I just love quiet and peace sitting with our Lord.
